Foreign News: Thanks for Your Shilling

George Bernard Shaw was 50 when he found an epitaph in the old
churchyard of Ayot Saint Lawrence, 22 miles from London. It read:
"1825-1895Her time was short." Then & there Shaw, who intended to
live to 100, decided that the quiet Hertfordshire hamlet where 70 was
considered a short life would be an ideal place to spend the coming 50
years. Shaw found a house, moved in, learned to love Ayot.
